about

Kami menilai di tengah masifnya perampasan tanah-tanah rakyat untuk kepentingan investasi asing, maka musik yang kami ciptakan harus lahir dari situasi dan keadaan objektif atas persoalan tersebut. Kami hanya ingin menyampaikan bahwa kerusakan alam, bencana alam, hingga punahnya flora dan fauna langka akibat deforestasi hutan menjadi perkebunan kelapa sawit dan pertambangan skala besar di Kaliamantan Barat. Hal tersebutlah yang menjadi dasar-dasar kami menciptakan materi lagu.
Secara tegas Kami menolak dan mendesak pembatalan RUU Permusikan. Salah satunya lagu kami yang berjudul “People Of The Land” merupakan karya yang kami ciptakan melalui lagu untuk memberikan semangat pada masyarakat adat di Kalimantan Barat untuk berjuang mempertahankan wilayah adatnya serta alamnya.

lyrics

Kala cakrawala
Tak terlihat bentang khatulistiwa
Hamparan samudera rentan
Hutan yang tak lagi terjaga

Merah menjadi ancaman rasa
Jingga bukan lagi warna senja
Biru laut tak lagi indah
Satwa kita pergi entah kemana

Suarakan gelisah jiwa
Amarah yang dulu membara
suarakan gelisah raga
Bangkitkan kembali suara jiwa

Bangkit bangkit
People of the land
Bangkit bangkit
People of the land

This might be the band that displaces Metallica as my favorite heavy metal band! It's heavy and has social commentary, which are my two favorite things in music. flannel_bear

May Our Chambers Be Full
by Emma Ruth Rundle & Thou

supported by 9 fans who also own “People Of The Land”

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
